Whether age is an issue or not depends on the people involved. The bigger issue that sticks out to me is the fact that you haven't met this man in person and there's distance between you. I wouldn't worry about the age factor until you even know if when you meet face-to-face it's worth pursuing.
Also, you are young. I didn't want to hear that either when I was 22. However, there are things that you may want to experience and an older person has most likely already been through all those things. Personally, if I were single, I wouldn't go for a younger person because I'm not interested in doing things that I did in my early 20s.
Age also plays into life-style choices. Older men usually have already been down the kid road or don't want them. They most likely are settled in a career and/or own property. You would be more likely to fall into their life instead of creating a life together. Not necessarily bad, but something to ponder.
Mentally, you could fall into a 'god' complex. Since he is older, you may see him as superior. You may not even realize you are doing it if it happens. This can mess up your self-confidence and set-up a scenario where you are dependent on him.
Then again, everything could mesh and things could be wonderful. No one can tell you, you have to take the path yourself. One thing to learn is that other people's opinions are irrelevant because you are the only one that has to live with your choices. And honestly, usually people search out the opinions that agree with their own and dismiss or take offense to the others.
